No, I have only updated our device tree because I don't know if it really should
be added back or not.

As you say the "ti,twl4030-power" does not configure anything. So what
is it good for?

Yes, that is what I deduced because our old setting of "ti,twl4030-power" did
no longer configure the power-off and not even load the driver.

Ok, I see (but must admit that I don't understand the details even after
reading the bindings.txt).

Currently we develop without taking care of suspend (the DT migration was
much more troublesome work than anticipated) but that should be changed soon.

thanks for the hint!
